Linux Distro Nightmares

You didn't install lilo.

You're two choices for something that actually are going to work decently on old hardware are Slackware and Free BSD ;)

Ah, I feel a bit stupid now. It's great being a n00b again :D

It's installing again behind me now. This time I'll install the bootloader :rolleyes:

I have Ubuntu on another system (AthlonXP 1800+) but I haven't even got around to using it yet. I'm hoping that by installing Slackware and using it for a while, it'll give me a kick start into the Linux world - and the rest will be easy (or not ) :D

This is to help you out with the install :
